Opis

One of the critical issues facing both the Chinese government and businesses operating in China is the lack of trained managers. The pace of Chinese economic growth has outstripped the ability of the labour market to supply much needed managerial talent. This book examines the Chinese response to the challenges of management training and development. It surveys the evolution of government policy over the last twenty years and their view of the current gap between managerial supply and demand. It goes on to consider the development of business schools and the impact of foreign partnerships on their operation, and describes the differences between in-company training provision in foreign invested enterprises (FIEs), State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs), and private companies. It investigates the growth of management training and consultancy companies, and analyses the perceived quality and utility of management training from the perspective of senior Chinese and expatriate managers. In conclusion, it summarises the current trends in management training and development in China, and outlines the likely course of future developments. Overall, this book is a comprehensive account of management training and development in China, and is an important resource in an area that has hitherto seen little substantive research.
